Elon Musk Is Faking DOGE Results to Hide His Incompetence

That's been his entire career, has it not?

All this was inspired by the principle – which is quite true within itself – that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods.

It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.

Let's dispel with this fiction that Elon Musk doesn't know what he is doing. He knows exactly what he is doing.

(Fuck you, Marco Rubio, I'm stealing your removed ass quote and detourning that shit.)

Musk may be an idiot in a lot of ways, but he knows how to leverage his power over others.

No, he's not. He's faking the entire premise of "DOGE" being about "efficiency" in order to obfuscate the fact that its real goal is to be a partisan purge, replacing career subject matter experts with MAGA loyalists at all levels of the bureaucracy.

Hell, he's not even trying to be sneaky about it! It's just the barest of fig-leaves, cynically designed to act as an exploit against journalistic ethical standards that naively require "objectively" reporting his claims as if they were being made in good faith. Even though the claims blatantly are not and everyone paying attention knows it, including the journalists themselves, the media can't call out the bullshit without upending decades of tradition and inviting even more attacks (also in bad faith) against their integrity than they're already getting.

Oh look, they're cooking the books. Who could have predicted this?

And after getting called out for ‘mistakes’ enough times, they’ll just stop being ‘transparent’ because “we don’t deserve it” anymore since we were so mean to him and his team.

Just look at all the savings!

Yes, but he's surely fucking things up. There are likely no upsides though.

I mean he certainly is incompetent but the idea that you could actually achieve anywhere near the results he is claiming with a bunch of racist teenagers in a month is absolutely insane.

It would be nice if we actually had the government audited to find waste and fraud. But it would take probably near a billion dollars and at least a years time and large dedicated team from a respected public accounting firm. Or even simpler, you could just increase GAO's funding and actually read their goddamn reports.

It's so sad that our nation is so clearly being hoodwinked and who knows the long-term damage it will cause as he just destroys any semblance of functional government with his reckless acts. What we are witnessing is pretty much the definition of fraud.

Does he need to lie? When you take an axe to the entire federal hovernment you're bound to save money, same as the average person would if they stopped buying food and paying mortgage. You may end up homeless and possibly dead but it will reduce your spending.

Honestly who fucking cares if DOGE is actually efficient. Elon is an appointed executive branch official who hasn't been confirmed by the senate. He is wielding power unconstitutionally and needs to be removed immediately.

So standard operating procedure he uses at Tesla? Of course he is

Its Path of Exile again, but the game is the world this time.

Department of Government Enrichment

It is simple any time a republicans mouth is moving it is lying.

Just like Goring lied to Hitler.

It would be funny if elon was actually only worth 400 million and not 400 billion.

Incidentally, his net worth has dropped below 400 billion to 398 billion since i last checked. Is he losing money? Is this anything to do with tesla stock?, because roughly 2 billion is a serious amount of money

He's been faking FSD for a while now, this is even easier to get away with.

One might say, he's dodging reality.... I'll see myself out...

Elmo lied? He would never!

Except.that time of the robo taxies

And that time about the boring company doing tunnels 100 time cheaper

And that time with hyperloop causing tens of billions of investment in impossible tech that any 5th grader could debunk

And that time about rockets on Tesla's

And that time that unfounded Tesla

And that time about solar roofs

And that time about Tesla full self driving

And that time about those laughably stupid robots

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And

And...

Oh I like that lady’s sign: “Department of Greedy Elon” is perfect.

Just like his wives did...

Can we prove it? Is there actual real data showing anything that he HAS found? With real proof?

Can we support our great President (/s) by showing him where the real inefficiency lays?
